New Wizarding World of Harry Potter coming to USJ

[Josh73]

Apparently Universal Studios Japan is getting a Harry Potter Section in 2014:

Clicky
Supposedly opening before USH as it is on vacant land. Intrested to see what's in store.

Thoughts?

Oh dear. Like modern "music", Harry Potter is one of the new crazes that I hate. Just not my type of thing and i mainly hate how big it's got.

Re: New HP world

Harry Potter is a part of my childhood, and I think these themed HP areas are looking really good!
But to be honest, I generally don't like when movies and such get their own ride, as I'm thinking that the movie, book or whatever it is, can't be that popular for such a long time, that a ride should last.

Meh. I prefer it when they do their own unique thing rather than just going copy and paste from park to park with exactly the same rides.
Although that said. Forbidden Journey is amazing and one of the best rides I've ever been on.

Re: New HP world

^ Exactly my thoughts, a copy is sort of an "easy way out". I loved Forbidden Journey as well, though.

Oh dear. I think WWoHP is one of the things I'm least excited about going to Florida for. I'm really not fussed about it at all. I'm looking forward to riding Forbidden Journey, but apart from that, the rest bores me.It's just ridiculous how they literally throw things around each park and make everything "same-y'.

I keep looking at this topic and trying to work out why there's a Hewlett Packard world opening and why it's exciting to [coaster] geeks...

^And I Don't get why the topic title isn't just something good like "Wizarding World of Harry Potter coming to USJ". Its not as if the character limit prevents a decent topic title.
